"This is a good overview of 1990. it showcases many top ten songs but I felt it should have included all number 1 songs and not just top ten hits. This is a good album but try to find number one songs instead."

LOVE THIS!

"When I found out that Entertaiment Weekly was putting out a compliation of greatest hits of different decades, I couldn't wait to get them. When I saw this one at my local K-mart and saw that a song that I really wanted on CD("No Myth") was on here, I bought it immediately and was not disappointed. Sure, I have half the songs on this CD on other CDs, but I still like it. Hey, it even has "Ice Ice Baby" on it...a cult classic(HA HA)!"

A GREAT compilation of 1990's best music

"Wow! Now THIS is what I call an all-around great compilation of hits from a year of music. I was in the store and I saw a couple of songs that I couldn't wait to own on CD, so I picked this one up right away. Upon getting home and looking over the entire track list, I didn't recognize (from the names of the songs) much more than half of the twelve songs. Little did I know that I was in for a big surprise.After I listened to the whole CD, I found out that it has a bunch of songs that I haven't heard in years, but that I used to like listening to on the radio back in the early 90's. And I recognized every single song on the album after hearing them, and the best part of that is, most of them are great songs.Entertainment Weekly: Greatest Hits 1990 has all kinds of songs from the year of 1990. There are good ballads ("Release Me"), some good old school rap ("U Can't Touch This"), upbeat techno hits ("Pump Up The Jam"), and everything in-between ("Unskinny Bop"). In other words, this album is almost sure to have at least a few songs that appeal to any fan of any kind of pop music.Not only is a spectacular compilation of songs included, but the booklet provides something extra for your money. That is, if you're really interested in facts about the artists on this CD, or the songs that they sang. For example: It tells you that "Ice Ice Baby" was the first rap song to ever reach #1 on the Pop Charts, that Paula Abdul was the first artist to ever have four #1 hits from a debut album, and so much more.On the back of the CD, it also tells the exact date that each song first made its debut on the Pop Charts, and at what position it ultimately reached.If you like some of the songs at first glance or at first listen that you see on this album's list, it would be a GREAT album to add to your collection!"
